VERBOTEN

Serves

How the house pours it.

Simple builds that respect the bottle. Nothing here needs a cocktail kit, or an audience.

Neat, one cube

The house serve. The brandy was finished in French oak so you could taste it, not bury it.

Build

  • 50mlVerboten Premium Brandy
  • 1Large clear ice cube, optional

Method

Pour into a heavy tumbler. Add the cube if you want the edges rounded off, skip it if you want the full 43%. Give it two minutes in the glass before the first sip.

The proper Brandy & Cola

South Africa's drink, done with intent. Cold glass, good ice, and a brandy that can carry it.

Build

  • 50mlVerboten Premium Brandy
  • 120mlCola, properly cold
  • Ice, more than you think
  • 1Wedge of lime, optional

Method

Fill a tall glass with ice. Brandy first, cola second, poured slowly down the side. Stir once. The lime is for people who like lime.
